    Then read.  www.cnn.com has several stories on Echelon and Carnivore on it
right now.  Quite a few in sequence on both.  One is suspected of scanning
email, the other is expressly for that purpose.  NPR has one snippet on it.
www.abcnews.com has several features on both as well.  

    I think after looking those up it is safe to say that most every major
news site has some stories on it.  Maybe if you look at something /other/ than
the sports and comics you'd notice the decided lack of privacy government
agencies want people to have.
